Does anyone know if the traffic booster programs really work?

The SEO companies do exactly what they say: improve SEO
ranking.

That's what you asked for. But that's not really what you
wanted: you really wanted more 
sales. SEO isn't set up to increase (and measure) sales. Use
PPC (Adwords) for that. Focus 
on conversions and ROI. Ignore clicks and impressions.
